Exomoon search with VLTI/GRAVITY around the substellar companion HD 206893 B

Q. Kral, J. Wang, J. Kammerer +130

Direct astrometric detection of exomoons remains unexplored. This study presents the first application of high-precision astrometry to search for exomoons around substellar compani…

The ExoGRAVITY survey: A K-band spectral library of giant exoplanet and brown dwarf companions

J. Kammerer, T. O. Winterhalder, S. Lacour +106

Direct observations of exoplanet and brown dwarf companions with near-infrared interferometry, first enabled by the dual-field mode of VLTI/GRAVITY, provide unique measurements of…

The gas streamer G1-2-3 in the Galactic Center

S. Gillessen, F. Eisenhauer, J. Cuadra +61

The black hole in the Galactic Center, Sgr A*, is prototypical for ultra-low-fed galactic nuclei. The discovery of a hand-full of gas clumps in the realm of a few Earth masses in i…

Spatially resolved broad line region in a quasar at z=4: Dynamical black hole mass and prominent outflow

GRAVITY+ Collaboration, K. Abd El Dayem, N. Aimar +92

We present the first near-infrared interferometric data of a QSO at z=4. The K-band observations were performed with GRAVITY+ on the VLTI using all four UTs, detecting a differenti…

Exploring the presence of a fifth force at the Galactic Center

The GRAVITY Collaboration, K. Abd El Dayem, R. Abuter +60

Aims: The presence of a Yukawa-like correction to Newtonian gravity is investigated at the Galactic Center, leading to a new upper limit for the intensity of such a correction. Met…
